Test JMX attribute groups

You can test the JMX attribute group that you created, within Agent Builder.


Procedure

    • During agent creation click Test on the JMX Information page (Figure 8).

    • After agent creation, select an attribute group on the Agent Editor Data Source Definition page and click Test . For more information about the Agent Editor, see (The Tivoli Monitoring Agent Editor).

    After you click Test in one of the previous two steps, the JMX Test window Figure 1 is displayed

  2. Select a connection from the list available under Connection Name or alternatively click Add to add a connection and follow the procedure that is detailed under Monitor Java Management Extensions (JMX) MBeans.

  3. Optional: Before you start testing, you can set environment variables, configuration properties, and Java information. See (Attribute group testing). For more about JMX configuration, see (JMX configuration).

  4. Click Start Agent. A window indicates that the Agent is starting.

  5. Click Collect Data to simulate a request from Tivoli Enterprise Portal or SOAP for agent data. The agent monitors the JMX Server for data. The JMX Test window collects and shows any data in the agent's cache since it was last started.

  6. Optional: Click Check Results if the returned data is not as you expected. The Data Collection Status window opens and shows you more information about the data. The data that is collected and displayed by the Data collection Status window is described in Performance Object Status node

  7. Stop the agent by clicking Stop Agent.

  8. Click OK or Cancel to exit the JMX Test window. Clicking OK saves any changes that you made.
